I was able to help a student with housing instability and a major medical condition get reestablished with a specialty health care team.  Through this connection and nursing support in the school environment, we were able to provide stability for food, housing, and get a medical procedure to reverse a tracheostomy.  This had a huge impact on this child’s future medical picture and improved the quality of life.  To know that you were pivotal in making this happen for a child and family is humbling and very impactful.

Sixty AAPS students in grades 5-12 competed in the Academic Games Leagues of America National Tournament in Charlotte, N.C. recently and delivered an outstanding performance.

Skyline junior Taylor Phillips earned Honorable Mention in C-SPAN’s national StudentCam competition.

During National Teacher Appreciation Week, AAPS students share heartfelt (and sometimes funny) reflections on the teachers who encourage them, challenge them, and cheer them on.

AAPS high school seniors celebrated National College Decision Day  on May 1st, proudly wearing their college gear to represent the schools and career paths they’ll pursue next year.
